KERNEL_CC=clang CC=clang make

Ahoj,

build for clang-build Linux 6.10.10 fails for me -- make system is trying to use gcc.

I try build as follows:

git clone https://github.com/freemed/tty0tty.git
cd tty0tty/module
CC=clang make

KERNEL_CC=clang CC=clang make fails with

make -C /lib/modules/6.10.10-xanmod-customconfig-clang/build M=/tmp/tty0tty/module modules
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/6.10.10-xanmod-customconfig-clang/build'

The kernel is built with clang, but this seems to be ignored.

git describe --tags of the cloned tty0tty source shows 1.2-59-gac540b8, i.e. at commit ac540b8.

Edit: With dkms, it works, though.
